i would say a local tech school, you do need some ece credits (early childhood education) but don't really need more than a 2 year degree to become licensed, i think you can do it in less than 2 years but a 2 year program looks better.

this was just a google search of early childhoos education majors in Milwaukee, Wisconsin:

and milmaukee area tech ece program page as well as their home page:

I would recommend if you are interested in working in a daycare to start at a community college, and get your basic classes out of the way. You only need 2 years of schooling with one 3 hour class in early childhood education to be a teacher in a daycare. If I were you, I would aim at getting my bachelors degree in early childhood. That would more than double your yearly income.

However, if you want to be a teacher in a daycare in Wisconsin, here are the state requirements:
Child Care Teacher: Must be at least 18 years old and have high school education or equivalent or certificate, credentials, or diploma from a post-secondary early childhood training program approved by the department. Must have 120 days half-time or 80 days full-time experience in direct care; or certification by the Wisconsin department of public instruction as a nursery school teacher or as an exceptional education needs teacher (or be able to show evidence of meeting the qualifications for certification); and 2 years documented credit in an institution of higher education with at least 3 credits equivalent to early childhood education or satisfactory completion of 80 hours of department-approved training in early childhood education, CDA credentials, or satisfactory completion of another department-approved competency program.

I don't know how it is in Wisconsin, but in Missouri you only have to have college credits. I guess, you would want to look for any classes on Early Childhood. FYI: being a daycare teacher doesn't pay that well! If you're not in it for the money, then more power to ya'!
